Elegant, exotic spice decorates the nose on this wine by Michael Mooney, with leathery clove, elderflowers, hard cinnamon spice and a blackberry fruit core. There is tremendous tension once sipped between graphite, tight elderberries and even some woody blueberries. Bay leaf, pencil lead and purple flower elements pepper the edges.
